Internet Citation Guides
The APA's version of what should be done is at http://www.apastyle.org/elecref.html. Many citation guides exist (and many that are based on outdated versions of APA). A site with multiple style links is athttp://www.library.wisc.edu/libraries/Memorial/citing.htm. This site is maintained by the University of Wisconsin and contains an index of good addresses for guides on APA and other styles. A site that helps with reference format can be found at http://www.stylewizard.com. Another site that includes a style wizard for APA is at http://citationmachine.net/. A relatively short and helpful summary of APA style is available athttp://www.eiu.edu/~edadmin/apa.pdf.
